48 ft Step Deck (Drop Deck) Trailer (US)
Deck: 14,630 × 2,591 mm (47 ft 12.0 in long), 37.9 m² of floor.
- It has the same 14,630 × 2,591 mm planning floor as the 48 ft flatbed, so the pallet counts match.
- Its deck is two floors: 3,353 mm upper and 11,277 mm lower, planned separately because pallets cannot bridge the step.
- It shares the widest floor among the 10 trailers and trucks, 2,591 mm, with the 53 ft flatbed and 48 ft flatbed.
- At 2,591 mm wide it takes three EUR1 pallets across (800 mm sides) with 191 mm to spare.
